Hurray!!!!
I finally won my first game! I only got as far as having airplanes, destroyers, and some sanitation....I was still pretty far from the end of technology.

I was still Bismarck the Pathetic after the game but I still won!

Ok, I just lost so many times I was happy I won so I figured I'd let you all know! Hurray!

i'm guessing cultural victory, if you were "pathetic", it couldn't have been an conquest or domination victory. You weren't near the end of the tech tree, so it wasn't the spaceship.
for diplomatic victory you would need the U.N. that's pretty late in the tech tree.
i'm thinking cultural ?

Yea I won by culture..
I built every wonder and put them in my cities, leaving the AI with nothing. I had enough culture to have cities across the ocean defect sometimes.

How I won?
I expanded until I met the English on my island. I slowly forced them back early on until I had a nice island all to myself . I then proceeded to send armys to other continents wiping out civilizations that threatened me by razing all of their towns with cultural acheivements and large populations stealing the smaller ones that wouldn't defect. Using the small cities as places to heal troops I used my army on the east continent to capture city by city heading straight for the Japanese capital. I ended up bombing coastal citys with my destroyers and ironclads and bombing his capital for fun before I knew Japan was no threat and I declared peace with everyone.

In a nutshell:
I took out people who were a threat and just took small citys for healing grounds.

There can be only one...
Cultural victory...ugh...

In the ways to win, which one has the thinnest panty liner?

Is it spaceship, cultural, or diplomatic victory? Must be cultural, followed by diplomatic and then spaceship.

It's like us all becoming French citizens because of all the French culture...yikes!!

...Or all of us becoming Americans because of American culture. As if that would ever happen...

Assimilating cultures via McDonalds and Nike. "Billions and billions served."
